Answer:

The mystery number is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

five more then -8 times a number is 29.

-8n +5 = 29

Subtract 5 from both sides

-8n +5-5 = 29-5

-8n = 24

Divide by -8 on each side

-8n/-8 = 24/-8

n= -3

The mystery number is -3

Help find the distance between two points?

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = B(0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = ( $\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2}$ , $\frac{\sqrt{58} }{2}$ )

AB = $\sqrt{((\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2})^2 }$ + $\{(\frac{\sqrt{58} }{2})^2 }$

= $\sqrt{\frac{6}{4} }$ + $\frac{58}{4}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{64}{4} }$

= $\sqrt{16}$

= 4
